HOA covenants in Deer Park subdivisions are enforceable under Texas Property Code, but enforcement must follow Chapter 209 procedures including written notice and cure periods.
CC&R (covenants, conditions, and restrictions) enforcement in Deer Park HOAs is governed by Texas Property Code Chapter 209. Before taking enforcement action, the HOA must: (1) provide written notice specifying the violation, (2) give the homeowner at least 30 days to cure the violation, and (3) offer a hearing before the board. The HOA may impose fines per the CC&Rs but cannot charge fines exceeding what is specifically authorized. Lien authority for fines (as opposed to assessments) is limited under Chapter 209 — HOAs generally cannot file a lien solely for fines. Selective enforcement (enforcing rules against some homeowners but not others) can be raised as a defense in court. Texas law preempts certain CC&R provisions, including those prohibiting solar panels, rain barrels, religious displays, certain flags, and drought-resistant landscaping.
HOA fines per CC&Rs. Liens for fines are restricted. Unenforceable if Chapter 209 procedures not followed.
